“…An attractive class of molecules under development for therapeutic intervention are microRNA (miRNA) mimics and antagomirs. Due to their capacity to restore control of aberrantly expressed genes, causing a wide array of human diseases, the development of miRNA therapeutics is highly investigated (Bianchi et al , ; Walker et al , ; Ward et al , ; Lulli et al , ; Starlard‐Davenport et al , ). In previously published work, we demonstrated that MIR29B , inhibits de novo synthesis of the DNMT enzymes DNMT3A and DNMT3B, in breast cancer cells and restores control of aberrantly expressed tumour suppressor genes involved in cell cycle control, including TP73, CDH1, RASSF1, CCNA1 , and CDKN1C (Starlard‐Davenport et al , ).…”
